I want to display of the indexed file from a particular section of my website.

So I type this into the address bar:

https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&q=site:example.com%2Fsubfolder%2F

I also want to exclude the PDF files that have been indexed. How do I change the URL I am using so that the results never include PDF files?

Using the inurl operator for Google should do the trick. Assuming your PDF files all have the .pdf extension, adding -inurl:pdf to your search will exclude those URLs.

https://www.google.com/search?safe=off&q=site:example.com%2Fsubfolder%2F+-inurl%3Apdf

    Alternatively, you could use the filetype operator instead of inurl, eg. -filetype:pdf
